Dangerous Drug & Pharmaceutical Injury Lawyers in Norfolk

Holding Pharmaceutical Companies Accountable

Every year, thousands of individuals are
seriously injured or
die from prescription and over-the-counter drugs they believed to be safe.
Patients trust individuals in the medical profession, including pharmacists,
to provide medications that will not harm them.

In the U.S., approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or a prescription
from a doctor the patient knows and trusts is enough for most people to
assume a high degree of safety. Still, dangerous drug injuries happen
with alarming frequency.

Unfortunately, the FDA inadequately tests some dangerous drugs before they
are made available to the public. In some cases, medications do not have
sufficient warnings on their labels, leading to serious illnesses ranging
from high blood pressure to liver failure.

Drug manufacturers have a duty to carry out extensive research on the possible
effects of any product before it is approved for sale to the public. Unfortunately,
far from helping people to overcome illness and disease, some pharmaceutical
manufacturers have actually harmed consumers.

Tragic Results from Dangerous Drugs

The pharmaceutical industry, spurred on by potential profits, sometimes
rushes into launching products before their long-term side effects have
been fully realized. The FDA is expected to protect our interests, but
may allow manufacturers to carry out vital tests on their own products,
thus bypassing an essential step in ensuring our well-being.

It is a sad fact that the consequences of some dangerous prescription or
over-the-counter drugs are not seen until the damage has already been
done, including:

Hemorrhages leading to a stroke, which may prove fatal

Heart attack

Diabetes

Internal organ damage

Depression which may lead to suicide
